COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTIONWe love the smell of fresh coffee in the morning. It’s one of the little things that put a smile on our face. Using delicate ingredients like Guatemala Antigua coffee, brown malts and Saaz hops, we created this dark coffee-infused beer. It will be the smile you need to break the daily grind.

New Beer Distributors, NYC 11.2oz ($4): Pours black with a creamy brown head. Aroma is a whole load of coffee grounds, plenty of chocolate. Taste is coffee grounds and plenty of them. Light bitterness and light chocolate flavors are in here too. This is not my favourite kind of coffee stout, but I liked it enough for what it tried to do.

(Drinking date: 24 March 2014) Very black beer, no light shines through. A layer of creamy beige foam. Looks delicious. Aromas of metal, coffee burned malts, caramell and alcohol. I don’t like the aromas that much. However the taste is much better actually!! It starts refreshing with a taste of coffee, and then a slightly bit of sourness comes in. During the whole time you taste the burned/roasted malts. The aftertaste is a long-lasting coffee-bitterness, with a slightly bit of sour, which makes this beer really refreshing overall actually! The mouthfeel is perfect. It has an average carbonation, and a watery body, which makes this beer really refreshing overall. The beer is not heavy to drink, it has a refreshing sourness in it, and a good watery body which makes it easy to drink. But still it has a lot of flavour, which makes this a really good beer overall! That’s why I give it the total score of 3.9!

Bottle @home. Bottling date 26/02/13. Pours black with almost no foam (light brown). You immediately get the chocolate aroma mixed with some malt and coffee. Chocolate bitterness where the coffee flavour seems to make it milder. The more you drink the more it tastes like coffee grounds. Not my thing at all.

33cl bottle @ home. Black color, flat brownish head. Aroma roasted coffee in the nose, simple coffee flavor with licorice, bready and soy sauce notes, maybe some chocolate. Taste light sweetness, very bitter, like coffee with just a hint of sugar. Full body but still more watery than a coffee, texture is not oily or creamy at all rather slightly sticky. Carbonation is flat, short coffeeish finsh. Good and simple.
